VVIP Effects

Weapon copycat

After getting killed by the enemy, players can press F to switch to said enemy's weapon upon next round or respawn. Weapons with special function (Dual Wield, Fast Draw, Variable Scope...) will be fully functional. This effect lasts until players get killed again and can be used 3 times per match. Unavailable in Ghost / Shadow Mode, Mutation Mode + variants and Zombie Mode.

Distance Check

​By pointing the crosshair to a location and hold 1, a Distance Mark will appear telling players the distance from their position to said mark. It will disappear within about five seconds. The maximum distance checkable is 100m, although when a mark is placed and players back away, it will still update the distance over 100m. In team-based mode, all teammates can see this marker as well, so it can be used to alert everyone about suspicious point / enemy ambushes.

+2 ammo for all equipped Assault Rifle

200% EXP bonus (owner)

30% EXP bonus (everyone)

Trivia

This is the very first VVIP that's unique to its original counterpart in terms of design and thus comes with a complete unique animation set. It's also the first silenced weapon with functional bayonet (The one on M4A1-S VIPs doesn't function).

The main color of AK12 Iron Spider is blue, yet when reloading it changes to red. When the reloading process is interrupted by Knife-stabbing action, the color will change to purple for a while then back to blue.

In CF Brazil, this gun is named 'Cybernetics', the science of communications and automatic control systems in both machines and living things.

When it was first released in CF Vietnam, this gun incorrectly shows a +6 on its Item Icon (From M4A1-S VVIPs) instead of +5, although the actual ammo count in-game is correct. It has been fixed in the 2nd update.

If the player has 7 Desert Eagle VVIPs and 1 Barrett M82A1-Iron Shark, when using Weapon Copycat perk on Pistol weapons (doesn't work with Dual Double Barrel and its variants), the weapon copied will be +8 instead of +7, which is impossible before AK-12 Iron Spider updated since the player can only +8 for Desert Eagle VVIPs, not normal pistol.

This is because the system still counts the Desert Eagle VVIP which was replaced by the weapon the player copied as a part of his/her bag.
